Studio - Advanced plant design
During the course, we work with case studies at different scales, from the details of a pocket park to more large-scale expressions in the street environment.
The knowledge of trees and shrubs is deepened through literature studies. Perennials and bulbs are given extra space.
Information from the course leader
Hej. Eftersom kursen startar med ett litteraturblock så är det viktigt att du har boken Naturalistic Planting Design; The Essential Guide av Nigel Dunnet redan vid kursstart. Den finns i några exemplar på SLU-biblioteket medn inte som e-bok. Därför är den tillgången mycket begränsad.
Här kommer en läsinstruktion: Läs kapitel 1 (Introduction) och kapitel 3-5. Övriga kapitel läses översiktligt. Gör en läslogg, dvs anteckna det som du finner intressant, anteckna var i kapitlen som du hittar detta. Koppla till annan litteratur och till din erfarenhet av platser och växtgestaltning. Gör en grafisk representation av det som du uppfattar som det viktigaste i anvisade kapitel.
Börja gärna att läsa redan under sommaren eftersom det kan gå trögt att läsa engelsk facklitteratur.
Hej från Ulla Myhr
